The Webview widget allows you to see up-to-date web page view directly on your homescreen. You can zoom and pan your favourite page so that a piece of it becomes part of the homescreen.

After setting up the view, just scrolling to the homescreen loads & updates the view, as does waking the phone from sleep when the widget is visible.

Update March 27, 2013:

Webview widget trial concluded. 
Planning next steps. 

The Webview widget team would like to thank all the trial participants for the valuable feedback we got. We are happy that there were so many people trying out the Webview widget, and are delighted by the amount of comments and suggestions we got. It was excellent that we were able to catch and fix few bugs as well.

At this point we have sufficient trial results to plan the next steps and, therefore, are concluding the beta trial.

Thanks again for your time and effort!

Best regards,
The Webview widget team
